You may think you’re being cute, when we think it’s your passive aggressive way of saying “like me” or “just kidding.” Man up to what message you’re trying to get across and don’t hang your insecurities on a stupid cartoon face.

4. Unplanned dates.

When you ask a girl out, you should already have a plan in mind. Although plans may change and things could come up spontaneously, we still want to know that you put in some effort. Some of you think presenting an open-ended date is your polite way of letting us have a say in what to do. Guess what? You ask us out. You plan. Then, we’ll make alternative suggestions if needed.

3. Empty invites.

It really irks us to hear a guy say the words, “we should do that sometime” and then never follow through with it. The more you give us empty invites in passing, the more we’ll write you off as the boy who cried wolf.

2. Empty promises.

Similar to empty invites, don’t give us empty promises like “I’ll call you tomorrow after work” or “I want to take you to dinner Thursday” and never come through with a plan. I’m sure you’ve all had a friend who does this to you, too. When a guy tells us he’s going to do something, we expect him to do it. No girl wants to date a flaky douche.

1. Fishing.

If you want to ask us out, ASK. US. OUT. I’m astonished by how many guys I see writing texts or emails like, “Do you like to watch movies?” “Maybe we should hang out sometime,” “What do you like to do on weekends?” and “There’s this new restaurant I’ve been meaning to check out.” Stop fishing for a girl to invite herself on a date with you. Instead of beating around to bush to see if we’d be interested, why not just come right out and ask us out on a definitive date?
